That’s the thing about snow, it can create absolute havoc and splendid beauty all within the same snowfall. It is something that some people yearn for; while others wish it would never snow again.
When the snow fell gently over the quiet streets of Rochester one afternoon it had an array of reactions from those within the fall path. Some sighed heavily as it meant a change to their plans, some curled up with a blanket using it as a good excuse to read their long neglected book. Others ignored it completely and continued on with their day; either at work or at home. Chores and responsibilities never stop for some people.
For 2 boys it was pure magic. They didn’t see the upset others saw, they didn’t see the negatives that a snowfall could bring. They just saw the wonder. They saw the chance to let the little boys that lived inside their hearts run and jump around again.
That snowfall was the first of many shared jumpers and a true start to their life of adventures together. Snow angels, snowflakes, stories and kisses from a happy puppy. The first of a lifetime of photos together that would hold memories for so many years to come, eventually placed inside a photo frame made with love by someone who didn’t know he was in love just yet.
Some people like to stare at the sky in wonder, trying to track the stars at night and the clouds at day. Others like to nod in thanks, for the snowfall that started it all and the rain that confirmed the beginning of everything.
